2018 men's International Junior Team Cup

We recently sent some of our top British junior boys over to Berlin, Germany to compete in the 23rd International Junior Team Cup.

The team of Pavel Karnejenko (18), Donell Osbourne (18), Danny Crouch (12) and Raekwon Baptiste (15) finished 5th in the team event with 231.850. This was a strong result for the young team, with the majority of countries finishing ahead of them, consisting of purely 17 and 18 year old gymnasts.

The individual age groups were split into categories for all-around and apparatus finals. In the youngest category (12 - 14 year olds), Danny Crouch impressed by taking joint 1st in the all-around event with 72.700. He then went on to win gold on the floor with 13.150, gold on the pommel with 12.150 and silver on the high bar with 12.000.

In the 15 - 16 year old category, Raekwon Baptiste also had a successful all-around competition taking the silver medal with 77.900. He also took gold on the rings with 13.350 and bronze on the pommel with 12.500.

In the senior category (17 – 18 year olds) Pavel Karnejenko placed 4th all-around and took bronze on rings with 12.950.
